Virtual Author Presentation at the library
We are thrilled to welcome back Liz Moore–one of the first guests to appear in the Library Speakers Consortium series–to discuss her latest work, The God of the Woods, an instant New York Times bestseller and one of NPR’s 2024 “Books We Love” highlights. Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers Barbara Van Laar has gone missing. Barbara is the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region’s residents. And this isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. As a panicked search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Wednesday, January 28th, at 7 PM via digital live-stream at The Red Rock Public Library!

Virtual Author Presentation at the library
Join us for an unforgettable experience as we chat with Vanessa Riley about her newest book, Fire Sword and Sea, based on the folk story of the female pirate Jacquotte Delahaye. The Caribbean Sea, 1675. Jacquotte Delahaye is the mixed-race daughter of a wealthy tavern owner on the island of Tortuga. Jacquotte dreams of joining the seafarers and smugglers whose tall-masted ships cluster in the turquoise waters around Tortuga. For twenty years, Jacquotte raids the Caribbean as Jacques, hiding her gender. When her fellow pirates decide to increase their profits by entering the slave trade, Jacquotte must make a change. Thursday, February 5th at 7 PM via digital live-stream at The Red Rock Public Library!

Little Librarian
Think you’ve got what it takes to be a librarian?
The Red Rock Public Library wants to put you to work!
Apply to be a Little Librarian!
For kids ages 6-12
Visit The Red Rock Public Library today and fill out an application!
Once selected, you will come to the library and create your very own book display! You can create your display based on any theme you want (think things like: space, travel, nature, graphic novels, kindness… be creative!) using books from the library, props found in the library or brought from home*, and by adding crafts or artwork!
You will be interviewed about your display and interests, and your interview plus a photo with your display will be posted on our social media!
*For any display items brought from home please keep in mind the library is a public space and displays will not be continuously monitored- do not bring anything of value as the library holds no responsibility if something goes missing. Thank you!
Displays will be up in the library for approximately one month, then rotated to the next Little Librarian’s display. We aim to allow for ALL applicants to have a turn working as a Little Librarian!
Contact the library for more information!
